Cute Dog Circus! | The Cute Show

We've seen some pretty cute things while making The Cute Show, but this dog circus takes it to a whole new level. In this episode we meet Hiroaki, the owner of the Super Wan Wan Dog Circus in Tsukuba City, Japan. We also hang out with Guinness Book of World Records inductees Leo, Doremi, Button, Koume, Aya, Kimchi, Nami, Mayonnaise, Ann, Sumire, Kurobe, and Akebi. They're the most talented Japanese dogs since Hachikō.

I love this! Normally, I don't like the idea of animals being in circuses but I would gladly pay to see this & support it!

[@cactusadams7752]

Including well-cared for domestic animals in the circus is the way to go imo! As long as you’re always super mindful of their needs and well-being, a dog or a horse or a pig can do all kinds of cool tricks and still live their best lives. Heck I saw a rat circus one time that was pretty dope!

[@Mdobri14561]

Wow not only does this guy have a circus of dogs but takes in/care of abandoned ones until they pass on! Good work sir!

[@JimCorrigan777]

I don't know who's more amazing, the dogs or the people that rescued them... That's dedication right there.

[@MandyDollofDollLand]

This is so sweet they are saving homeless or abandoned doggies. Yay!

[@tira_]

I'm so touched! All the dogs look so well-groomed and happy. Thank you, Uchida-san!!!

[@ThinkLuluBee]

that's really nice of that man to take in stays and keep them until they die. those dogs really do look happy

[@Oakleaf700]

Yes, so so rare to find a ''happy'' circus video on you tube. This is a great happy pack of dogs, ruled over by a very loving ''pack leader''.Rescued dogs too.....well done him.

[@Ianmundo]

"we entertain kids and elderly people", shit I'm 25 and this is infinitely more entertaining than the TV talent shows everyone laps up

[@Oakleaf700]

What a lovely bloke. the dogs look so happy, living in a pack, and being mentally stimulated. Guess they are happier than many lone pets who have to be alone while an owner works.Dogs just love being around their people and fellow dogs.

[@MrTeamgarrett2]

I love seeing circus dogs

[@Oakleaf700]

I just LOVE old dogs! they have a quiet dignity that pups don't yet have- but yes, losing a beloved dog is so tough. And they get old so ''fast''- as a lithe young dog [Whippet/hound] galloping at 35 mph will at 7 be markedly slowed, and a dog of ten is very slow, and by 12 is reluctant to get out of a slow canter, and at 18 is really just content to potter. Oh yes, it hurts terribly when they die. But that is the price we pay for the love of our dogs...

[@jnagtube]

I like vice videos.. and it's really nice to every now and then not have a crazy messed up / sad one. Its like that random good news you sometimes see on tv.

[@alicugh]

"i want my doggos to do that" "yo that poodles really trying" -Jish

[@colinwang1899]

The dogs are really cute.l wish I could train my dog like this. It was so amazing. But l can't train my dog like this. He doesn't listen.l would love my dog to go to circus and perform together.

[@JaneDoe-je7nh]

This is so cute it made me tear up!

[@Oakleaf700]

Indeed it would not be the same. People who say 'animals don't have souls' obviously have never connected emotionally with the pure love an animal gives to it's human companion. These dogs are some of the happiest I have seen! they have a ''job'' to do, and dogs love that,dogs love to be appreciated, and also to live in a 'pack' so they can also be dogs. The little poodle with orange pompoms is probably ''top dog''!.

[@localhero8634]

Not a lot of things can touch my cold, KZbin jaded heart, but this almost brought a tear to my eye.

[@MrRobertBatchelor]

Vice should fund a trip for these people to get them on a show like America's Got Talent. They would do so well!

[@snapsnapdik]

I feel good about the world, and now I will sleep.

[@Emmett162]

thats amazing all the dogs look so happy him and his team are amazing people

[@ArTyOM570568]

Thanks for this video. It is nice to see something informative and fresh on youtube for a change.

[@bebo3ful]

I loved Japan and japanese people already, this is just adding to reasons why I want to live in Japan.

[@societyofsin]

What a lucky guy, to have all those cool dogs.

[@annoythefish]

That's a sweet A&W shirt. I wish I had a sweet A&W shirt like that.

[@firehawk5628]

I watched this thinking it would be sad, but as long as the dogs are treated fine, I'm happy :D

[@mmmodafoca]

this awwwwwsome vice, juast amazing.

[@Venaloid]

That is incredible and touching.

[@AntiSecure]

Woah, this was awesome. Usually the Vice animal videos kinda... Lack in quality, but this was awesome!

[@aditib2274]

Really cute puppies.i love that the way they take care of them. I hate animal torture like horse racing and all that but this one's cute and funny and I don't think they beat the animals for training purposes.

[@clearbrookstudios2979]

Did you know 15000 racehorses get shot each year in Australia?

[@marie23926]

This is amazing 😍

[@aussiedownunderman]

that is so wonderful! I want to go see their circus :)

[@flufthaillest]

this is so cute i'd love to see them in person

[@xRidiculousLionx]

How can you not like what these guys are doing :3

[@Justinmako]

I would go to this show for sure, very cool people and dogs!

[@1337N00bpwn3rHax]

this is amazing!!! :D

[@gazhughesdrums]

That's amazing. I have a rescue border collie. She was about to be put to sleep by the dog warden and had already had 4 homes. She loves learning tricks and I'd love to teach her some walking globe stuff. She is quite a big dog, would she struggle to learn this? Love your video by the way :)

[@mariaimakulatasw]

cuteness overload!

[@moviedude22]

dogs are really talented wow

[@WesleyRattner]

it was either cos i was slightly drunk or merely cos of the funny music but i almost pissed myself laughing at this.

[@AstleAlvarez]

to be honest I thought it´d be worse, but they actually look like they are happy and in good condition :3

[@KarelKahula]

Nothing better than watching a Vice Cute Show to the end and seeing nothing but death, cannibals, guns and body dysmorphia as suggested viewing.

[@fisa47]

Una persona davvero speciale!

[@sebassmoi]

That is AWESOME!!!

[@JUSTDANCE379]

Japan is such a wonderful place!

[@CallMeFail]

it's impossible to have a video on youtube without any dislikes, that has like over 10k views

[@mylowe]

love you, chuck.

[@kirt410]

They are trained like any other dog, not forced... They look pretty happy and healthy to me. Would you rather they remained strays?

[@Earthshallperish]

I agree... I guess we all must learn how to deal with losing loving ones, it's the circle of life after all.

[@Slarti]

It's the way youtube counts the views and how the data is stored - there is a viedo explaining this somewhere on youtube and I believe around 300 to be the magic area where this phenomena happens.

[@Bozar069]

Because they are from different sections of their website. You should really check it out sometime, its full of variety. What you see on KZbin is nothing but a small cross section of things previously released.

[@27hellome]

I know they are amazing itelligent animals I have a poodle she is extemly smart but I know that some peple in asia eat, torture and abuse animals and I'm scare maybe this might be a case but if is not then I'm proud of the people who do this show and I respect them and great for the dogs they get to live happy

[@aeloria]

I heard the word "daikazoku" from all the way across the internet and followed the echo here.

[@Redruminstry]

Awesome

[@eveningrice]

What a chill life XD

[@BruceDwyer]

I hope they got rewarded with some really GREAT Healthy Dog Treats .. !!

[@Karla-rb5jg]

The poodle

[@antho515]

awsome !

[@o0GrayMatters0o]

faith in humanity restored. i will live on this planet a little while longer.

[@alexriesenbeck]

This seems like a very nice thing!

[@Earthshallperish]

Old dogs make me sad, it's like seeing a friend getting older and you know eventually he will die and it will hurt!

[@Mr.itbelikethat]

Amazing... now i want a dog..... a kick ass dog!!

[@Ievolovel]

Bravo!

[@lesamisdonno]

Where do you buy a big ball like in the video? I have rescue dogs who do circus too and would like to see if they like the balencing ball! I love your dog circus!

[@mouleteric]

better than them being abandoned and dying a poodle's hair isn't painful or abusive at all XD

[@Aquamarine560]

This is awesome! The best I can do is teach my dog to jump through a hoop, haha!

[@Starlightean]

Awww

[@wrathchild11]

now I'd like to see a Japanese DOLPHIN show....that doesn't end with a frying pan.

[@steffahProduktions]

aww

[@dotbongz]

Kawaii level: over 9000

[@FearSanity]

Those dogs are so cute, I want them all ;-;

[@MatthewRyanBJJ]

I love dogs

[@genkykaia]

Why do people almost always presume that animals are tortured to do things? Dogs are naturally intelligent and most of them learn quickly what to do. It is basically teaching your own dogs some tricks. They do it in a bigger scale and also tortured dogs don't look that healthy and relaxed. Just because some trainers are bad does not mean all are.

[@unicyclegoblin]

these guys are as good as the guys on americas got talent

[@Alleem44]

hell yeah

[@Tannz0rz]

I could just imagine PETA labeling this "animal abuse".

[@jeebersjumpincryst]

well said waterlily, fully agree :)

[@effinurmother]

have a good night man.

[@Thrasheruni]

does anyone know if these guys have a website?

[@Emmaredman440]

Cute

[@onreload]

hey does anyone know if there's a Jindo in the mix there? kinda looks like one.

[@starheart1633]

I love the poodle.

[@lidiaoliver423]

what's the music called?

[@headcheese3]

So cute!!! *squee* :3

[@Solembumer]

I want my dog to do some of this stuff!

[@GRAVEAUDIO]

vice

[@petermozuraitis5219]

Someone abandoned a finnish spitz ?!? I call shenanigans

[@DynastyTrickDogs]

[@TheWarhammerfreak]

from terrorists to north Korea to... this? I love you vice

[@CJAEY]

So cute lmao

[@melvicpost21]

People need to focus on the cool dog thats up here instead of all that crazy shit. This is amusing.

[@Grittenoir]

A&W shirt : @1:44 !

[@ReddoFreddo]

there are cat circuses as well

[@cactusadams7752]

Oh yeah! And rat circuses

[@PixelDansIronFist]

[@theBraxil]

Probably can't even read it, just needed an orange shirt to match the dog's hair.

[@radzievicius]

[@Achevement]

[@danielpetit.]

[@sydneyp3357]

[@anubhavdas436]

the dislikers are probably blind they may have thought the dogs to be rats or cockroaches

[@gregdeacon3472]

[@andataris1]

I am neither a kid, nor an elderly person and I eat this shit up with a spoon.

[@coenpat]
